2017 INFINITI QX50 Overview

The 2017 INFINITI QX50 is a luxury mid-size SUV that seats 5 passengers. It competes with the Mercedes-Benz GLA250, BMW X3, and Lexus NX 200t. This year, it remains largely unchanged.

The QX50 has sporty, yet unconventional styling with large organic-shaped headlights, a hollowed-out grille, and a wide-mouth fascia. Chrome accents along the grille, side windows, and door handles give a premium appearance to the QX50. Standard features include heated side mirrors, a moonroof, and 18-inch wheels. An adaptive front lighting system, Xenon HID headlights, fog lights, a reverse tilt-down mirror, and larger 19-inch wheels are also available.

The QX50 is powered by a 327-hp, 3.7-liter V-6 engine mated to a 7-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel drive comes standard, while all-wheel drive is optional. Fuel economy for the QX50 is an EPA-estimated 17/24 mpg city/highway.

Inside, the QX50 has an upscale, leather-upholstered interior with a 60/40 split-folding rear seat. The center stack features a 7-inch display, Bluetooth connectivity for phone and audio, and a USB port. It can be upgraded with an integrated navigation system and a Bose premium audio system. Standard features include dual-zone automatic climate control, and power/heated front seats. A power tilt/telescoping steering wheel and a power-folding backseat are also available.

Parking the QX50 becomes more convenient with an optional Around View Monitor system. It utilizes cameras on each side of the vehicle, and displays the vehicle’s surroundings on the in-dash screen. A blindspot monitoring system, a forward collision warning system with brake assist, and lane departure warning are available as well as adaptive cruise control. Standard features include 6 airbags, antilock brakes, and an electronic stability system.
